Hello Peter,

you have processed the data really very well. Can you give me some tips on how to make the oiii portion so well visible? In my version it is currently much weaker.

Hi Darius, To be honest thats a really good start.

There a few ways to handle narrow band a RGB combination. You can add you Narrow band data to the RGB, or process them separately.

When you process them separately you need to combine the different weights of narrow band using Pixel Maths to create a bi colour image then layer it to the RGB or LRGB image. That way the Narrow band data doesn't get lost in the broad band.

Hope this gives you a good starting point.

This is my latest rendition and colour pallet.

Thanks Peter,

that has already helped me a lot. So far I have processed all my images with AstroPixelProcessor(APP) and Photoshop and have always achieved good results.

I have now taken a closer look at Pixinsight and reprocessed the data with it. The result is now already much better than that of APP. I think in my future images I will use PI a little more often.

Thats a huge difference. Pixinsight is a steep learning curve but worth doing. Its extremely powerful. I still use Photoshop for certain things. Photoshop generally for finishing.
